As the Continuous assessments are all due this week, we have focussed on them since delivery to Dermot.
The delivery went very well, with his imagination being sparked and new enthusiasm and ideas emerging.
We’re going to work on the documentation tomorrow and other finalisation of the project next week.
1 deadline tomorrow morning, 2 on Friday and 1 the following Monday – lots to do!

Tomorrow we’re making a delivery to Dermot, probably our last before the end of the project. The functionality is nearly all there, hopefully we’ll get some final feedback from him to put finishing touches to everything.
We decided last week to do an overhaul of the design, and started with moving the link bar to a horizontal position above the content, rather than vertical beside, freeing up valuable screen “real estate”.
We also changed the colour schemes, quite easily thanks to our use of a single CSS file from early on

Well, not quite, but we’ve put a short video of me on the front page to try to get Dermot interested in putting a short introductory video on the front page of the site. Basic stuff, introducing each section and his company/services. Just to stand out.. At a later stage, help videos for each section could be introduced!

A few small nightmares over the last two days, in our haste to synchronize builds ready for deploying to Dermot tomorrow (now rescheduled by Dermot to Tuesday!) our build got slightly broken and skewed. Got it back up and running this morning, just some of my flex components hadn’t been updated correctly. Sigh of relief.
Slightly more worrying is the rattling noise coming from Kevin’s PC, it has also refused to switch on a few times. So we’ve backed everything up from it (including his blog, now available right next door here on wordpress.) and plan for him to move development to his laptop. Could be its just a fan needing replacement but we’re not going to take any risks so close to May 2nd!
Back on track, I’m carrying on finishing the policy PDF document, he’s carrying on with CMS testing
